Brighton-based Christian worship band Phatfish have released a new project this month, four years since their last studio album.
The album,Guaranteed, contains songs that are "energetic and tuneful", according to the Phatfish website.
Many of the songs have been penned by band member Nathan Fellingham, who collaborated on some of them with respected songwriters Paul Oakley and Simon Brading as well as with wordsmith Andy Back.
Phatfish will be performing songs from the new album at the Newday festival and Cheltenham Bible Festival this year in August.
The band was formed under the name 'Purple Phatfish' in1994, with a vision for a Christian group that would be excellent musically and be respected by Christians and non-Christians alike.
Musically, the band was initially a jazz-funk/rap outfit at a time when acid jazz was very popular in England. Purple Phatfish had a vision to be 'salt & light' in the secular world, and spent much of the first year performing their own songs in secular music clubs, mainly in the Brighton area where they gained a considerable following on the local music scene
